Q: How do you know when an BATF agent is lying?
A: His lips move!
Note the plural - water meter readers - went into the wooded area to urinate. Sounds suspicious to me. Did they hold each other's 'units' while doing so? How far into the 'woods' did they trespass? Did they have a permit for tandem urinating? So many unanswered questions, so little information...
/s
Yes, kinds like that. I also dream of hunting with an AK on full auto.........
Perhaps you were being flip, but you’re using the words of the gun-grabbers to a T.
a golf ball is about 40mm, could you use it for a driver? :)
“This guys weapons didn’t do squat to defend him from unConstitutional government.
Nor do I see thousands of Patriots running to his aid.”
Sad but true!!
The States are corrupted by money & Most Americans have become fearful of THEIR Government! They say the Federal Constitution is Supreme & it best that of the States..Then I ask who’s to stop them when they operate like Stalinist? The Bill of Rights was to place chains on this beast of a Federal Government..That whole Supreme clause has been used to turn us into Slaves..Nothing more
Let me get this right:
The doctor is definately an intelligent man.
He likes firearms, and procured an FFL.
He paid for the FFL and proper Form 4 paperwork for the transferable machineguns...
...He form 1'd the Grenade Launchers and paid the applicable tax on them.
He legally owns ammuntion and practice grenades.
BUT HE IS DUMB ENOUGH TO HALF-ASS BURY HIGH EXPLOSIVES NEXT TO HIS HOUSE WHERE SOME JOE CAN TRIP OVER IT???!!!!
IMMEDIATELY AFTER A STATE POLICE INSPECTION OF HIS INVENTORY BY A "METER READER" TAKING LEAK?!
I CALL BULLSHIT! This smells like a setup.
Anyone dumb enough to skirt the grey area of NFA violations would WELL distance themselves from such a charge. If I owned an M203 and wanted to stash HE, I would do it MILES, if not a couple of counties away from me. NOT NEXT to all of my worldly possessions.
/art bell rant off.
The BATFE should not exist. What part of the 2nd amendment is so hard for people to comprehend?
Like Stuart on MAD YV, "Look what WE can do!".
Good thing this guy is of Indian descent.
If he were a Christian gun owner, they would have conducted a full-on military assault, eventually resulting in the incineration of Mann, women, children, and pets in his family.
Most of the Americans I've met that happen to be of Indian descent, are outstanding citizens.
I think this guy is likely as well, and is just being rail-roaded for the "grandstanding" purposes of federal "law" (read that, unlawful) enforcement.
The JBTs are emboldened by their left-wing, anti-gun, anti-2nd Amendment, decidedly UN-AMERICAN masters in congress, and appear to be on the march against us law-abiding citizens.
I don’t know if I believe that any more.
BATF agents, the other, OTHER white (and dark) meat. :)
Yeah I think that's it!
A black scary looking 'high powered rifle' with all that 'military stuff' and high capacity bullet clippy thing-a-ma-jig and has that 'flash-suppressor-silencer' thing on the gun barrel. Plus that 'Laser Aiming Gizmo' on the side.
Yep, that 'shotgun'.
;-)
some “investors” are right.
This exists in a "free" Country? That's Third World fear. That's Soviet KGB fear. That's Nazi SS fear.
And it's working. People are staying put. Keeping their mouths shut when the Doctor down the street gets raided or the collector they see once in a while around town.
This same paralysis gripped the Germans when the Jews down the street went missing.
Cav Arms got raided over a YEAR ago. Thousands in inventory seized. STILL no charges filed. Red's almost got taken out and is still trying to recover. Len Savage has been under attack lately. The recent SCOTUS case against Beretta hasn't seemed to slow down the harassment lawsuits in other jurisdictions.
How many stories have we read right here where a collector/ffl/c&r gets taken down and we never hear another word on it? The cases get put on the back shelf, the po-buckers go under without a peep, and the media looks for the next target to demonize.
That depends on how many different calibers it was. 20000 for ma deuce 400 81mm etc. :-)
Yep... they want that right to self-defense gone so that they can cow the population. [Un]Fortunately they seem to have forgotten that cows can kick.
Another observation about this story is the hand grenades that were found.
According to the Supreme Court in the US v Miller decision, sawed off shotguns serve no useful military purpose in regards to a “well regulated militia.”
So, according to that ruling, since hand grenades serve a military purpose, they aren’t illegal for private citizens to own.

Which makes the following line by the BATF agent a display of willful ignorance, or, a public official drunk with power:
Inside the container, Oliver said, were 98 live grenades and one practice grenade, all designed to be fired from a gun and considered “instruments of war with no social purpose.”
